    I was told she is six months old. I have to call the vet tomorrow for her vaccinations records and to schedule a spay, so I will verify her age. She still has puppy teeth, but I've heard CC's have funky teeth, so I'm not sure if that is as reliable a predictor of age as with other breeds.

    Her temperment in GREAT, surprisingly, considering she has spent most of her life completely alone. She loves everyone, is not in the least bit shy or frightened. She thinks she is a big dog, and tries her best to chase Rocky and Gia. Looks like a pig chasing two race horses.

    She indeed loves Rocky, since they are basically the same age, and they want to play all the time. But he is much bigger than she is, and he lived with a 125 pound lab for a few months, so he plays rough. I am constantly having to call him off.

    Yes, she is a foster! I want to place her with a breed rescue or someone who owns CC's already.

    DH loves her. He carries her around in his coat, talking baby talk to her, while she is wearing her little pink baby dress. It's hilarious. He has a soft spot for the underdog, he always says, "The ugly ones need more love." LOL

    And she has had not ONE accident in the house! So much for the horror stories I was told about how she was "impossible" to house train.

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
